“Our product requirements are constantly pushing us to provide higher image processing speed, higher disk and memory bandwidth while maintaining a low cost and small footprint. We have been using a server class platform that was working for us, but Captec recommended a lower cost approach they believed would provide better performance. Captec provided a solution that met our packaging and reliability goals while also achieving 20% improvement in typical processing time. We have since adopted this solution into our premium product and are very satisfied with the lead time and terms provided by Captec.
